Riding a bike was a little slow going at first for me. However riding fairly hard for exercise definitely made me feel better.
I suffered from palpitations and an elevated heart rate after my second COVID vaccination last year (Moderna). I had to wear a portable EKG for a couple days, no fun. A couple weeks of beta blockers and things returned to normal.
Today I rode the same 25km route, it was hotter than yesterday, but the ride was easier. My pulse was lower, and I was able to get over the climbs using a higher gear. I’ll see the doc on Monday, and get a PCR test while I am there. As nice as it is in Hawaii, I have to get home. I’ll ride a much as I can while I am here, riding in Tokyo is not so fun.
